This Job Aint Easy

A big shout-out to Blonde Justice for her recent post on PD frustration. Today, I am set for trial on two cases exactly like the ones she described. One of my clients believes there is no evidence against him. When I point out that the police report indicates they have an eyewitness who caught him trying to leave the store, then followed him to the section of the store, whereupon he pulled the store's item out from underneath his shirt and put it back on the shelf, he is still convinced they have no evidence. Why? Because they didn't seize the allegedly stolen item! They just left it in the store! No evidence! Case closed!
